Applications and Parts Highlights Machine and Technology ê High Precision Others Machine Specifications NLX 4000 Thoroughly Controlled Thermal Displacement There are varieties of factors leading to thermal displacement that has a major influence on machining accuracy, including heat generation during machine operation, changes in room temperature and increase in coolant temperature. DMG MORI tackles the factors one by one with the original method for thoroughly controlling thermal displacement from every aspect. For the spindle, which is the prime heat source, we spirally arrange the oil jacket around the spindle unit to regulate the temperature increase. 10 Coolant circulation for casting parts (NLX 4000 750) DMG MORI has developed a new technology to circulate coolant through the casting parts as a measure against thermal displacement that directly affects machining accuracy. Thermal displacement is caused by various factors including non-uniform expansion and contraction due to difference in thickness of the casting; uneven heat generation in the slideways; operating environment; and changes in ambient temperature due to season and time of day. The coolant circulation maintains a uniform temperature inside the casting parts, and minimizes deformation in the machine. + Uniform thermal displacement + Resistance to changes in ambient temperature + High-accuracy long-term machining Coolant circulation pathway
Coolant chiller <separate type> (option) Increased coolant temperature causes thermal displacement in the fixtures and workpiece, affecting the machining accuracy of the workpiece. Use this unit to prevent the cutting coolant from heating up. When using oil-based coolant, the coolant temperature can become extremely high even with the standard coolant pump, so please be sure to select this unit. When using oil-based coolant or a superhigh-pressure coolant system, please be sure to consult our sales representative. We cannot guarantee that this unit will completely control the coolant temperature. It is designed to help prevent oil temperature increases.

With the Y-axis control, unlike polar coordinate interpolation, machining surfaces are not affected by cutting condition changes led by reverse movements of the X-axis during grooving and contouring. 16 Y-axis specification The Y-axis is created by linking the feed of the X-axis and the simulating axes. We have made the axis unit compact and restricted the height of the machine. We also independently developed a powerful platform for maximizing performance in the Y-axis specification. This has achieved rigidity between the spindle and the tool tip that exceeds that of conventional two-axis turning centers. + Y-axis travel: 60 mm ( 2.4 in.)
